Includes bibliographic references (leaves 53-62). Off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCAB) was developed to avoid the deleterious effects of CPB. Current literature reveals some peri-operative advantages of OPCAB, with few studies detailing these in Africa. We review our institutional experience with both approaches in higher risk patients to determine pre-operative characteristics, short and mid-term outcomes in a developing country. 2015-01-05T18:22:28Z 2015-01-05T18:22:28Z 2010 Master Thesis Masters MMed http://hdl.handle.net/11427/11432 eng application/pdf Division of Cardiology Faculty of Health Sciences University of Cape Town
